Short, concise description of combat feat of service:
Guard Private Vera Mikhailovna ZAKHARENKO, telephone operator for the communication company, during the offensive from 31/01/44 to 08/02/44, ensured an uninterrupted connection between the regiment's headquarters and the battalions. During the breakthrough of the enemy's defense lines at the North-Western village of Natalevka, under heavy enemy fire, she repaired 15 damaged spots in the communication lines, and in the subsequent battle actions, under heavy artillery-machine gun enemy fire, she ignored the danger and maintained the communication lines. On 05/02/44, during the operation to deflect the enemy attacks at the approaches to the railroad station Chertomlyn when the connection was being constantly interrupted, Comrade ZAKHARENKO repaired more than 20 damaged spots in the communication lines, thus ensuring timely transmission of information and contributing to the successful completion of the battle tasks.
